The prices are horrible. For some reason I feel that a price of 16 UK Pounds for 24 hours access is slightly excessive. And by slightly excesive, I mean they are far too high. In the USA, T-Mobile charges US$10 per day or $6 per hour. At the current exchange rate, the UK offering is something like double the price. <\/p>\n<p>Hmm. Lets have a look at the FAQ for our friends at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.t-mobile.com\/hotspot\" \/>T-Mobile<\/a> &#8211; International Roaming. Seems that the month by month plan with T-Mobile USA allows for international roaming for only $40 a month plus surcharges in some locations. Pretending I was in the USA, I asked customer service about roaming, and they told me that there were no surcharges for Starbucks in the UK. Fantastic.  I am happy. <\/p>\n<p>I can get a month of WiFi in London for the same price as day, if I use the US based T-Mail services. So, guess what I will be using? Also I get access in airports so that helps too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have been looking at the prices of WiFi in the UK. The prices are horrible.
